Beneath the dim illumination of the Everlasting Lamp, the soldiers roughly brought Thales and Little Rascal, who had their hands tied behind their backs into the prison cell next to Kohen's.
Thales listened to the sound of the thick iron door being locked, and consoled the horrified as well as perplexed Little Rascal for a bit. He then turned his head and looked at his surroundings through the bars.

There were only three bound prisoners—Wya, as well as a man-and-woman pair in the dark. All of them were staring at Thales in disbelief.
However, there were six guards present, all staring at the prisoners without moving their gazes away. They had fierce expressions and they were extremely vigilant.
Thales clutched his hands together softly as his heart sank—his dagger had been taken away.
